  1. Collaborative Research: Vision and Models A. Murat Tekalp

  2. Introduction • “Intellectual property” provides competitive edge in the global economy • Economic impact of academic research • Number of patents/faculty • Royalty income/faculty

  3. Research Mission • Faculty-industry collaboration towards creating “intellectual property” and economic impact • Human resource training at BS, MS and PhD levels • who are well-prepared for original research and development • who understand the importance of “intellectual property”

  4. Facts Faculty members in Electrical and Computer Engineering • have • 55 patents granted • 44 patent applications pending • have actively participated in International standards groups • ISO MPEG • ITU (International Telecommunications Union) • IETF (Internet Engineering Taskforce) • 3GPP (Third Generation Partnership Project) • are full partners in three European Community FP6 projects • SIMILAR • 3DTV • NEMO

  5. SIMILAR • The European taskforce creating human-machine interfaces SIMILAR to human-human communication • Instrument: Network of Excellence • 30 European Institutions • Coordinator: Catholic University of Louvain (UCL), Belgium • Koç team: A. Murat Tekalp, Engin Erzin, Yucel Yemez • Total Budget:6.1 Milion Euro (266.630 Euro for Koc) • Video processing, computer vision, speech processing, multi-modal information fusion

  6. 3DTV • Integrated 3-D Television- Capture, Transmission and Display • Instrument: Network of Excellence • 20 European Universities and Institutions • Coordinator: Bilkent University, Turkey • Koc Team: Reha Civanlar, A. Murat Tekalp, Yucel Yemez, Hakan Urey • Total Budget:6.3 Milion Euro Total (282.510 Euro for Koc) • Video processing and compression, computer graphics, communication networks, optics and 3-D displays

  7. NEMO • NEMO - Network of Excellence in Micro-Optics • Instrument: Network of Excellence • Coordinator: Vrije University, Belgium • Koc team: Hakan Urey, Alphan Sennaroglu, Ipek Basdogan, Ali Serpenguzel • Total Budget:6.4Milion Euro (200,000 Euro for Koç) • Micro-optics technologies, photonics, nanoelectronics. Modeling, test and measurements, prototype production

  9. Research Areas • Multimedia ProcessingReha Civanlar, Murat Tekalp, Engin Erzin, Yücel Yemez • Wireless CommunicationsOğuz Sunay • Antenna Designİrşadi Aksun • Optics and MEMSHakan Ürey, Alphan Sennaroğlu • Bioinformatics and Parallel Processing Atilla Gürsoy, Deniz Yüret • Verification and Software Engineering Alper Demir, Serdar Taşıran, Networking and Embedded SystemsReha Civanlar, Öznur Özkasap, A. Akkas

  10. What can we do together? • Funded joint research projects • Joint project definition and direction • Obtain joint patents • Know BS, MS and PhD students more closely to hire them after graduation • Write joint grant applications for future European calls • Technology consulting • International contacts from Networks of Excellences

  11. A Collaboration Model with Grad Students Graduate students • 25 MS students in the ECE MS program • 3 PhD students in the EE and CE programs • 20 new MS and PhD students will be hired this year A research triplet consists of • A faculty advisor • A corporate co-advisor • An MS or PhD student

  12. A Collaboration Model with Undergrad Students • Independent Project (Junior year, second semester) • Summer Practice (Staj) (Summer after the junior year) • Senior Design Project I (Senior year, first semester) • Senior Design Project II (Senior year, second semester)
